Narcissists have no self-reflection or empathy. What this means is they don’t reflect on how their behaviour affects others because there is no empathy.
Narcissist’s know what empathy looks like and therefore they can imitate empathy, however, it is not consistant nor genuine.
They appear to show empathy for others and not for some.
They can show empathy sometimes for others outside of their family, but no empathy for direct family members.
Narcissists will act wounded.
If you challenge them on their behaviour, the conflict will become about your “overreaction” to their behaviour towards you.
You will be accused of being over sensitive. Or it was your behaviour towards them that caused their outburst towards you.
You will begin to second guess what you know as reality.
Their behaviour can isolate you from family and friends.
On a special day such as a Birthday celebration, or another day not celebrating them, they will create drama and ruin your day, making it about them.
If they can not control you in your own home, they will bully you into submission.
They may become close to your family members behind your back to slowly turn them against you so you have no one to turn to.
